New Delhi: Supreme Court asked the Central government to give details regarding the actions taken on special investigation team's (SIT) recommendations to curb black money.

A bench comprising of Chief Justice H L Dattu and Justices Madan B Lokur and A K Sikri asked attorney general Mukul Rohatgi on Thursday: "What is the fate of these recommendations by the Supreme Court-appointed SIT? The Centre will tell us about it in the next hearing on October 28," according to a report in Times of India.

The SIT had suggested many recommendations to curb black money in its third report submitted to SC in May. The recommendations include making acceptance of cash by educational institutions a punishable offense, making inclusion of donor PAN number with large donations to charitable organizations compulsory, curbing illegal betting in cricket through enacting appropriate rules and regulations, and banning bulk transactions in cash.

The Central government will have to respond to SC with details of the actions taken by it to implement these recommendations on 28-October.
